Settings for EPOC Devices

To get Pipex set up with an EPOC device
(I have tried a Revo and a netBook
- others will be similar), two things need setting up - talking
to the Nokia 7110, and using the Pipex
GSM node on Vodafone. Please note that
I am not an expert on this kind of thing - so you use these settings
at your own risk. The things we need to do are:

Use the UDI/V.110 protocol for the dial
up.

Restrict the speed to the 7110 from the
EPOC device and reset it for each new connection.

Drop the UK/ prefix from
the Pipex login id.

Step-by-Step

1. Modem

First set up a new Modem. You should use this modem only
when dialing a Pipex GSM node. Create another modem entry
with the same settings, except leave the Data init. string
blank, if you want to use your Nokia 7110 for regular data access.

Data init . string:

AT+CBST=71,0,1

Note: This tells the Nokia
7110 to use UDI (V.110) protocols to talk to the Pipex modem.

2. Internet Service

After creating a new service using 'Standard Settings',
there are three sections to change to customise it for Pipex Dial:

Leave blank

Standard dial-up number:

976976

Account

Manual login:

Leave blank

Username:

solxyz98

Note: xyz98 should be
replaced with your Pipex login id (as used for email). For regular
dial-up to 0845 0795068 you should use UK/solxyz98.

Addresses

The changes in this section are optional, but I have found that
they improve reliability

Get DNS address from server:

Leave blank

Primary DNS address:

158.43.240.3

Secondary DNS address:

158.43.240.4

Other options on these and other tabs should be left at their
defaults.
